Scaling supervised fine-tuning for working agents requires not only broad coverage of professional tasks, but also expert demonstrations that faithfully carry out professional workflows to completion. However, missing or inconsistent task information can disrupt expert demonstrations, weakening the resulting supervision. We introduce WorkFactory, a scalable task-construction framework that turns professional intents into executable task environments through hybrid intent sourcing, semantic workflow planning, and execution-based repair. Starting from these intents, WorkFactory constructs a Semantic Workflow Graph that explicitly represents information requirements, dependencies, and locations within the task environment. The graph guides the instantiation of task environments, while an adversarial execution-refinement loop exposes missing or inconsistent information and steers targeted repairs that preserve the original intent. Using WorkFactory, we construct 112,686 tasks spanning 612 occupations and train the WorkPilot family at 4B, 27B, and 35B-A3B scales on the resulting teacher trajectories. All three models improve over their respective base models across four professional-work benchmarks, with WorkPilot-35B-A3B rising from 879 to 1565 Elo on GDPval-AA v2.1. Scaling experiments with up to 110k tasks further show that larger models benefit more from additional task data but exhibit diminishing returns at smaller data scales, while WorkPilot's long-horizon execution evolves from verbose trajectories toward more efficient task completion. Controlled component studies quantify the negative effects of task-environment defects on downstream performance and show how semantic workflow planning and execution-based repair yield downstream gains through improved task-environment quality. The subset of data are available at https://github.com/IQuestLab/WorkFactory.
